01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

In Africa, emergencies, (GBV), Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), and maternal health crises present urgent challenges that demand immediate attention and innovative solutions. Despite existing emergency response infrastructure, the prevalence of GBV and FGM persists, endangering the lives and well-being of women and girls across the country. Furthermore, inadequate access to quality maternal health care exacerbates the risk of maternal mortality, particularly in rural areas where health services are scarce. While Kenya has made strides in addressing these issues through legal and policy measures, the continued occurrence of GBV, FGM, and maternal health crises underscores the need for more robust and effective emergency response systems. Existing systems often lack the capacity to adequately address the complexities and nuances of these emergencies, resulting in delays and gaps in service delivery. Additionally, societal norms and cultural practices perpetuate the acceptance
